SUMMARY:

This study aims to describe and interpret the process of implementing the Quota Policy for the children of PRONAF beneficiaries, agrarian reform settlers, and rural wage workers in Higher Education at the Campus Sousa of the Instituto Federal da Paraíba, considering the period from 2012 to 2022. To this end, a case study was conducted, grounded in a historical–organizational perspective and based on semi-structured interviews, with the purpose of understanding the experience of the IFPB from the perspective of quota students, considering the dimensions of access, retention, academic success, and empowerment in relation to the quota policy for rural students. The research findings indicate that the adoption of this affirmative action represented a significant advance in the democratization of access to higher education for a group historically excluded from the academic environment. However, there remains a set of mechanisms yet to be developed to ensure both the physical and symbolic sense of belonging of these quota students within the institution. At the conclusion of the study, Technical Products were developed, including the creation of a Peasantry Center within the institution, aimed at strengthening collectivity, senses of belonging, and rural identities, as well as a Draft Resolution designed to effectively establish guidelines and norms for improving the effectiveness of this necessary affirmative action policy focused on facilitating the entry of rural populations into undergraduate programs within the scope of the IFPB, serving as a model for other Federal Institutions nationwide
